- Miradouro da Boca do Inferno - Miradouro da Boca do Inferno is one of Sete Cidades’ most stunning viewpoints. A short walk leads to a dramatic lookout over the crater and the renowned twin lakes—blue and green—framed by forested slopes. It’s a must-visit for photos and a true “wow” moment on São Miguel.
- Vista do Rei Miradouro - Vista do Rei Viewpoint in Sete Cidades offers one of São Miguel’s most iconic views. From here, see the entire volcanic crater—an immense, bowl-shaped caldera formed by ancient eruptions—with its steep green walls descending to the village and the famous Blue and Green Lakes. A must-visit for photos in any season.
- Caldeira das Sete Cidades - The Caldeira das Sete Cidades is a vast volcanic crater on São Miguel, shaped by ancient eruptions and now covered in lush forest. From the rim, enjoy breathtaking panoramas before descending into the crater, where the village of Sete Cidades and the famous twin lakes—one blue, one green—are surrounded by dramatic green slopes and peaceful trails. A buffet lunch featuring many local dishes will be enjoyed.
- Miradouro da Barrosa - Miradouro da Barrosa is a scenic viewpoint above Vila Franca do Campo, on São Miguel’s south coast. From this elevated stop—approximately 947 meters above sea level—enjoy expansive Atlantic views over the town and coastline, plus a beautiful perspective of the island’s green slopes descending toward the sea.
- Lagoa do Fogo - Lagoa do Fogo (Fire Lake) is one of São Miguel’s most breathtaking natural wonders. Nestled inside a protected volcanic crater, this pristine lagoon is surrounded by steep green slopes and dramatic viewpoints high above the water.
- Ribeira Grande - Ribeira Grande is a vibrant town on São Miguel’s north coast, celebrated for its traditional Azorean charm and coastal setting. On the tour, pass through Ribeira Grande, catching glimpses of its historic streets, local architecture, and everyday island life shaped by the sea.

Spectacular Scenery - Our group of friends had a great time on the tour with wonderful English speaking guide Ricardo. He was very knowledgeable and provided much insight to the geography, history, and culture of the Azores. We capture some great pictures from spectacular viewpoints throughout the tour.

Great experience, highly recommend! - We did a tour with Greenzone Tours Azores a couple of days ago, it was really great. Our guide Henrique had a lot of interesting information about the island, and knew a lot of beautiful locations. A really good guide! I wish we would have done all our tours with Greenzone, instead of a big touring bus.
Highly recommended!
